I like the Belkin F5U002 USB Parallel Adapter cable as this has worked with
many printers. You must contact HP and confirm that the HP 950C supports
this type of connectivity. There are some printers that cannot be connected
in this manner.
Be sure to disable Bidirectional in the ports tab before completely giving
up.
